Be the Church


Our spiritual journey does not end when we find our way home to the Church.  The One whom we had been pursuing and who pursues us without ceasing calls us to holiness.  It is not enough to be IN the Church.  We are called to BE the Church.  We are called to be fierce guardians of the holy and mysterious scandal that is Christ.  We are called to bear witness to the reality that God obliterated the line between mutable and immutable, vulnerable and omnipotent, mortal and immortal, human and divine in Christ.  We are called to give joyful testimony that this obliteration is an act of the God of love who wants to be close to us for all eternity.
